@@Parth:: This time they barely managed to foil the tradition of losing first test-match, then playing catch-up cricket in rest of series...hmm though they changed that trend in SA but got so carried away and lost next two.

Let’s hope, they play with same intensity and don't fall to good ole trap of leniency.

@@Parth:: He is GOD, trouble is that every time we expect him to score a 100 or save the game; agreed his record is not good in critical games or situations but anyways no one else performs in those conditions.

I'm sure Sidebottom will learn something from that spell, the difference between average batsman and the master himself.

@@Shub:: Ya, that was against the spirit of game, and you know sugar-coated saliva helps in retaining the shine of ball for longer period.

@@Arunima:: Thats everyone's desire to beat them but not that easy :-)

The English are such sore losers. The jelly beans were meant to insult Zaheer. Alleging that the prodigious swing had all to do with the jelly bean/saliva, rather than his own ability. (Bowlers in the English County are known to resort to such tactics)

Fun part was when Zaheer bowled to Alistair Cook in the 2nd inning, he asked him, "You thought I was bowling jelly beans?!"

I personally loved Matt Prior's dismissal the most. An Indian pace bowler ripping out the opposite batsman's middle stump is a sight straight from cricketing heaven!
